I hate to be crude, but I can't see Julianne Moore blather on anymore without thinking of that line from Knocked Up about her bush in Short Cuts having Scatman Crothers running around in it.

While there is never any clear cut winner, I think if you know the work involved in Avatar you would be amazed. My feeling on Basterds however was that Richardson's work has become kind of dull, as that film felt quite flat to me.
But could you distinguish between the cinematographer's and art director's work and the CGI guys? I couldn't--same with "Dr. Parnassus," to be fair.
It's more clear in Dr. Parnassus to be fair, but quite seamless in Avatar. If you can spot it, then nobody did their job. Again, there's a lot of great DP's out there but Avatar is not without credit earned.

Yup. Strap in. The sun'll be coming up before this ceremony is over.

Best Actor: the performance everyone voted for without actually seeing the movie because they were told to by every magazine and Oscar blog on the planet.

Did they switch up the order of Actor and Actress thanks to that stupid editorial?

By that logic, no individual technology awards should be given out.

they switch off in certain years, but I don't know if there's any logic to it (I doubt it)

This is the speech everyone wanted from Rourke last year. Pretty fun stuff. But at this point in the ceremony it's enough already.

i think so, apparently doing it for supporting actor/ess to start wasn't enough.

Another Cameron suck off: When Kate walked out they played Titanic music. It's amazing what 700 million can buy you.

The only thing that could salvage tonight is a Carey Mulligan win. So, that won't be happening

Streep, Streep, Streep...

Wow - the Oscars cannot bring themselves to show Jesse James in any shot of Sandy. They won't lower themselves in a ceremony with Taylor Lautner, Zac Efron, and Miley Cyrus presenting awards.

at least that awful pop song over the credits of Avatar didn't go anywhere and isn't being played everywhere.
